Kansas chords and lyrics
Free chords for Kansas by Gorillaz. Scroll the interactive sheet above or read the chord names inline below.
Obviously, being from Kansas, I had to find chords for this song and do it justice.
Capo on 3. This song is in G Major. Probably. Or something in one sharp.
If you want to see the actual chords, transpose up 3 steps.
The chords I wrote get a little fancy. Sometimes I decide to include other notes I hear from other melodies,
granted they are notable (and reasonably do-able) enough to add. They'll have a * by em.
You are by no means obliged to play these starred chords, but I have shown where you would play them should
you decide to go for them. You'll have to listen carefully for the timing on some of them. If you ignore them,
just play the written chord with no extra stuff tacked on.
I did not incorporate the bassline, sorry. :(

To be perfectly clear,
On the chart below, I am giving the names of the chords which your FINGERS play. These chords are NOT the
objective, actual chords of the song. So, G#m is, objectively, Bm.
For the sake of ease and reducing confusion, I omit these objective chord names, unless explanation helps.
